You can set up the auto attendant to answer outside calls, provide callers with
a company directory, automatically forward calls to a specified extension, and
enable callers to record voice messages when there is no answer. You can use
a default outgoing announcement or record up to five announcements of your
own. For details on how to use the auto attendant feature, see the

Record announcement (auto attendant)
Use this feature to record up to five new announcements so that you can
have different announcements for different lines, or different announcements
for daytime and after hours. You can easily switch among the recorded
announcements. Each announcement can be up to two minutes.
The auto attendant announcement should contain instructions for the caller.
Following are example scripts.
Default announcement: “Hello, this is an automated attendant. Please enter
your parties’ extension, followed by the pound key. If you are using a rotary
telephone, please stay on the line. For a company directory, dial star twice.”
If you have many extensions, record a separate extension list (page 28)
and reference it in your auto attendant announcement as shown in
Sample
announcement 1. If you have only a few extensions, you can list them in the
auto attendant announcement as shown in
Sample announcement 2 without
the separate extension list.
Sample announcement 1: “Hello, you have reached XYZ Corp. Please
enter your parties’ extension, followed by the pound key. To hear a list of
extensions, dial star twice.”
Sample announcement 2: “Hello, you have reached XYZ Corp. For sales,
press 1 pound; for service, press 2 pound; for shipping, press 3 pound; or
press star for the receptionist.”
